THE GUERDON, by JOHN JAMES PIATT
First Line: To the quick brow fame grudges her best wreath
Last Line: Lo, her choice crown -- its flowers are also stone.
First Line: To the quick brow fame grudges her best wreath
Last Line: Lo, her choice crown -- its flowers are also stone.
To the quick brow Fame grudges her best wreath
While the quick heart to enjoy it throbs beneath:
On the dead forehead's sculptured marble shown,
Lo, her choice crown -- its flowers are also stone.
